E N Notes on Use G L I S H When Listening with IR Wireless Headphones ≥ Even if your headphones are the open-air type designed to let you hear outside sounds, do not turn up the volume so high that you can not hear what is around you. ≥ Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing comfort level adapts to higher volumes of sound. So what sounds normal can actually be loud and harmful to your hearing. Guard against this by setting your equipment at a safe level BEFORE your hearing adapts. To establish a safe level: • Start your volume control at a low setting. • Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably and clearly, and without distortion. ≥ Once you have established a comfortable sound level, set the dial and leave it there. ≥ Do not attempt to adjust the size while wearing headphones. (You may find that your hair is pulled as it becomes entwined with the headphones.) ≥ There may be breaks in the sound or noise may be heard if the headphones are used at a distance from this unit (display) or if obstructions block the infrared rays. These problems are caused by characteristics which are inherent in infrared rays, and thus are not indicative of any malfunctioning. ≥ Make sure that the infrared sensor window is not covered by your hands or hair. ≥ Since these headphones use infrared rays for operation, avoid using them in direct sunlight. ≥ When playing DVD video recordings and listening to their sound through IR wireless headphones, the sound may be heard at a low level even after the volume of the IR wireless headphones has been turned up. In a case like this, stop playing the disc, and then change the DRC (Dynamic Range Compression) setting among the DVD video settings (page 82) to "Minimum" or "Standard". However, depending on a disc' s format and content (music DVD, etc.), you may feel that the sound is not being reproduced properly. If this is the case, keep the DRC setting at OFF. ≥ When listening to sound through headphones, the volume level is a little lower compared with listening to sound which is delivered from speakers through an external device. Liquid Crystal Panel ≥ Storage temperature range: `4 °F to 176 °F (`20 °C to 80 °C) When the liquid crystal panel reaches high temperatures or low temperatures, chemical changes occur within the liquid crystal panel which may cause malfunctions. ≥ Do not strongly impact the liquid crystal panel. ≥ When the temperature is very cold or very hot, the image may not appear clearly or may move slowly. Also, movement of the image may seem to be out of synchronization or the image quality may decline in such environments. Note that this is not a malfunction or problem. Usage temperature range: 32 °F to 104 °F (0 °C to 40 °C) ≥ There may be red spots, blue spots and green spots on the panel surface. This is a characteristic of liquid crystal panels and is not a problem. The liquid crystal panel is built with very high precision technology and has at least 99.99 % effective image pixels. Be aware that on 0.01 % of the panel there may be missing pixels or constantly light pixels. Spots ≥ In order to protect the liquid crystal panel, keep it out of direct sunlight while the unit is not in use. ≥ Sudden changes in the temperature inside the car such as those which occur immediately after the car's air conditioner or heater has been turned on may cause the inside of the liquid crystal panel to cloud over due to water vapor or it may cause condensation (droplets of water) to form and, as a result, the panel may not work properly. Do not use the unit while these symptoms are in evidence but leave the unit standing for about an hour, and then resume or start use. 10 CY-VHD9500U Protect Disc and SD memory Card ≥ When you leave the car, be sure to eject the disc/SD memory card from this unit and bring it out.
